Let’s discover how and why patience is not the same thing as waiting.
In Oh, the Places You’ll Go, Dr. Suess talks about waiting—and he points out how it can be… quite a negative.
You can get so confused that you'll start in to race
down long wiggled roads at a break-necking pace
and grind on for miles across weirdish wild space,
headed, I fear, toward a most useless place.
The Waiting Place…
Patience isn’t the same as waiting—but it is pretty common to mix the two up.
You’ve probably seen them be mixed up before.
When someone is waiting—not being patient, but waiting—they’re just refusing to acknowledge what's happening in favor of what they’ve already decided will happen.
Patience, on the other hand, has not cast a verdict about the future because patience lives in the present. Patience postpones making any determination about what will be happening and is CONTENT to exist within whatever is going on simply for the sake of being part of it.
Those who can be patient can take whatever his happening in stride, while those who wait are stuck, frustrated, and hindered by whatever is happening.
In Exodus 34, God describes his own patience by saying that he is: “slow to anger.” In reality, the Hebrew is “long of nostrils.”
Which requires some explanation…

- It’s the teacher who is gleefully looking for chances to point out when you’re wrong.
- It’s the boss who watches over your shoulder until you make a mistake.
- It’s the pessimist who complains about next week’s rainstorm during today’s sunny afternoon.

Welcome Perspective
Consider the impact of “slow anger.”
If God promises that he is “slow to anger,” how does that help people? God’s promises are always meant to give you rest, and this one is no exception. If God is truly slow to anger (and he is!) you can approach fear in an entirely different way.

Study this song to see why Christmas drives out fear.

There are many ways to rate songwriters, but when it comes to
(If we’re being honest, this hymn has a phenomenal text with a less-than-interesting melody—and it usually gets treated as such—and as such, Sinatra and Manheim Steamroller missed it for their Christmas albums.)
For you, for Christmas, this year, Illume is going to try to fix this hymn’s un-popularity by retranslating the German text and writing an entirely new melody. Here’s the thing: Gerhardt’s hymn has 15 verses. They’re amazing, but it’s too long for one recording and Illume’s version won’t be able to include them all. That being said, it’s worth exploring the thoughts in this poem, and prayerfully take them to heart. That’s what this module is for.
A very literal translation is laid out in the image below. Hover over the points on the line to read through the hymn, praying along and considering the overall story and point as you go.

Worship Perspective
Let’s consider the relationship between fear and impatience.
If you’re doing this Spotlight with a group, divide into groups of three.
Example:
If you’re doing this Spotlight with a group, divide into groups of three.
- First, choose something you are concerned about, anxious for, or afraid of (likely something from the list you created in the Welcome portion of today’s Spotlight.) Share that fear/anxiety/concern with your partner as they share theirs with you.
- Go to the Open Bible Topical Search to try to find a promise of God that corresponds to the fear/anxiety/concern you were given. Share the verse with the person who gave you the fear/anxiety/concern.
- Pass both the fear and the verse on to the third person. With the verse and fear you just received, seek to explain how, in view of God’s promise, this concern is just impatience masquerading as fear.
Example:
- You are anxious about your career path, so you tell one of the people in your group, “I can become anxious about my career not going the way I want.”
- That person takes your concern, visits the Open Bible Search page, and types in “career.” They find Proverbs 22:29, “Do you see a man skillful in his work? He will stand before kings; he will not stand before obscure men.” They share that verse with you, and they give both the verse and the fear/anxiety/concern you shared to the next group member.
- The third group member things about your anxiety and the promise in the verse, and says, “The concern that often comes up about career going the way we would like is impatience with God’s promise that ‘hard work is recognized by kings.’”
Let’s make some parallels—together.
The third chapter of Zepheniah’s prophecy is the story of the patience of God—even in the midst of what seemed to the people like punishment.
Read through the chapter (it’s found broken up within the numbered section below) and answer the questions you're asked while walking through the section.
(You can write/type out your answers however you want—whether through your favorite note-taking app, good old pen and paper, or something else.)
1. Notice the contrasts between the CITY and the LORD. Based on these contrasts, list some the most distinct differences you notice between yourself and your God.
Woe to the city of oppressors, rebellious and defiled!
She obeys no one, she accepts no correction.
She does not trust in the Lord, she does not draw near to her God.
Her officials within her are roaring lions; her rulers are evening wolves, who leave nothing for the morning.
Her prophets are unprincipled; they are treacherous people.
Her priests profane the sanctuary and do violence to the law.
The Lord within her is righteous; he does no wrong.
Morning by morning he dispenses his justice, and every new day he does not fail, yet the unrighteous know no shame.
Zepheniah 3:1–5
2. God speaks here, and he doesn't seem happy. He is particularly disappointed in Jerusalem, since he'd done so much for the people and hoped they would trust him. List ways that God's given you extra opportunity, like he gave Jerusalem, even when you've failed to see take advantage of it.
“I have destroyed nations; their strongholds are demolished.
I have left their streets deserted, with no one passing through.
Their cities are laid waste; they are deserted and empty.
Of Jerusalem I thought, ‘Surely you will fear me and accept correction!’
Then her place of refuge would not be destroyed, nor all my punishments come upon her.
But they were still eager to act corruptly in all they did.
Therefore wait for me,” declares the Lord, “for the day I will stand up to testify.
I have decided to assemble the nations, to gather the kingdoms and to pour out my wrath on them— all my fierce anger.
The whole world will be consumed by the fire of my jealous anger."
Zepheniah 3:6–8
3. The destruction from the previous section was actually PURIFICATION! When, in your life, has God destroyed something you thought you wanted to provide you with something purer and better in its place?
“Then I will purify the lips of the peoples, that all of them may call on the name of the Lord and serve him shoulder to shoulder.
From beyond the rivers of Cush my worshipers, my scattered people, will bring me offerings.
On that day you, Jerusalem, will not be put to shame for all the wrongs you have done to me,
because I will remove from you your arrogant boasters.
Never again will you be haughty on my holy hill.
But I will leave within you the meek and humble.
The remnant of Israel will trust in the name of the Lord.
They will do no wrong; they will tell no lies.
A deceitful tongue will not be found in their mouths.
They will eat and lie down and no one will make them afraid.”
Zepheniah 3:9–13
4. If you're a Christian, these verses parallel what God hopes your life is like right now. List where in your life you're seeing reason to "be glad and rejoice" along with any ways you can think of that you are being "no longer rebuked."
Sing, Daughter Zion; shout aloud, Israel!
Be glad and rejoice with all your heart, Daughter Jerusalem!
The Lord has taken away your punishment, he has turned back your enemy.
The Lord, the King of Israel, is with you; never again will you fear any harm.
On that day they will say to Jerusalem,
“Do not fear, Zion; do not let your hands hang limp.
The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves.
He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.”
Zepheniah 3:14–17
5. These verses are parallel the part of a Christian's life when they reach heaven—when all badness is forever gone. How does God's patience with your sin help you as you wait patiently for heaven?
“I will remove from you all who mourn over the loss of your appointed festivals, which is a burden and reproach for you.
At that time I will deal with all who oppressed you. I will rescue the lame; I will gather the exiles.
I will give them praise and honor in every land where they have suffered shame.
At that time I will gather you; at that time I will bring you home.
I will give you honor and praise among all the peoples of the earth when I restore your fortunes before your very eyes,”
says the Lord.

Discuss the ways that having a God who commiserates with you helps give an answer to the problem of pain.
What suffering and pain can show you about God, and what his willingness to compassionately suffer with you can do to reframe who God is and how he works, is a beautiful truth that is usually borne out of great hardship. Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a pastor in Germany who was imprisoned for speaking out against the Nazis. During his time in prison, he wrote about how meaningful a suffering God had become to him.
Explore the set of Bonhoeffer quotes below. If you’re doing the Spotlight in a group, have different group members each choose a different quote to explain and reflect on for the rest of the group. (Again, you can even click or tap or on the images to enlarge them, if needed.)

A New York City taxi driver arrived at the final stop for his shift. He honked. After waiting a few minutes, he honked again. Because it was his last stop, he considered pulling away. Instead, he put the car in park and walked up to the door.
He knocked.
He heard an elderly voice, “Just a minute.”
He then heard the shuffling of bags moving across the floor. Then the door opened.
It was a small woman in her 90’s with a soft smile wearing a print dress and a pillbox hat with a veil pinned on it. As she answered, the taxi driver caught a glimpse inside the house. It looked as if no one had lived there for years. All the furniture was covered in sheets, no clocks on the wall, and no knickknacks on the counters.
“Could you carry my bag?“ the lady asked.
The cab driver walked her slowly down the steps of the front porch to the cab.
Once in the cab, the lady handed the driver an address and asked, “Could you drive through downtown?”
“It’s not the shortest way,” The driver answered.
“I’m in no hurry. I don’t mind,” she said. “I’m on my way to hospice…”
The driver and passenger shared a quick glimpse in the rearview mirror, enough for her to see his concern and continue:
“I don’t have any family left. The doctor says I don’t have very long.”
The driver quietly reached over and shut off the meter then asked, “What route would you like me to take?”
For the next two hours, they drove through the city. She showed the driver where she once worked, the neighborhood where she and her husband first lived, a furniture warehouse that had once been a ballroom when she was a girl. There were a few parts of town she asked the driver to slow down and she would sit, staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
After a couple hours, she suddenly said, “I’m tired. Let’s go now.”
They drove in silence to the address she had given him. When they arrived, two orderlies came out to the cab as soon as they pulled up. They must have been expecting her.
The driver opened the trunk to take out the suitcase. As he shut the trunk, she was already in a wheelchair.
“How much do I owe you?” She asked, reaching into her purse.
“Nothing,” said the driver.
“You have to make a living,” she answered.
“There are other passengers,” he responded.
Almost without thinking, the driver bent and gave the lady a hug. She held on tightly.
“You gave an old woman a little moment of joy,” she said. “Thank you.”
The driver gave a final squeeze of the lady’s hand and the two turned to go their separate ways. As he got in the car and glanced over to her, the door was shut.
He didn’t pick up any more passengers That night. In fact, he could hardly speak.
What if that woman had gotten an angry or impatient driver? What if she got someone who refused to get out and go to her door? Refused to take the time driving around the city?
The taxi driver couldn’t shake the feeling that this single moment may be one of the most important moments of his life.
God would not have been surprised by the situation in the way the taxi driver was.
Consider and discuss the following questions with this story in mind.

Consider and discuss the following questions with this story in mind.
- Why would God choose to operate in total patience?
- What is the value of this choice? How is it different from God showing some kind of relativism or apathy?
- How does patience accomplish God’s primary goal better than anger and punishment?
- How does that apply to us and our primary goals?
